the femur bone.
The growth plate of a long bone is located at the end of the bone, near the joint. It is also known as the epiphyseal plate and is responsible for longitudinal growth during childhood and adolescence.
Bone growth is controlled by a variety of factors, including growth plates found at the ends of long bones. At around age 20, these growth plates ossify and turn into solid bone, which signals the end of longitudinal bone growth. After this point, bone remodeling and maintenance occur instead of growth.
The incorrect alignment of bone ends is called a "malalignment." This can happen as a result of a bone fracture or dislocation, where the bone ends do not meet or align properly. Treatment may involve realignment through manual manipulation or surgery.
Long bone growth in length occurs at the growth plate, also known as the epiphyseal plate. This is a cartilaginous area at the ends of long bones where new bone tissue is formed, leading to longitudinal bone growth.

The growth plate, also known as the epiphyseal plate, is the site for longitudinal growth in a child. It is a cartilage region at the ends of long bones where bone growth occurs, allowing bones to elongate during childhood and adolescence. Once growth is complete, the growth plates close and are replaced by solid bone.
A fracture. May be of several types - ~Greenstick (partial/common in children) ~Comminuted-(basically shattered) ~Compound-(protruding out of the skin ) ~Simple-(not protruding out of the skin) ~Spiral-(around the bone) ~Transverse-(across the bone horizontally) ~Longitudinal-(long ways up a bone) ~Impacted-(broken ends wedged into one another)
Bone growth is controlled by a variety of factors, including growth plates found at the ends of long bones. At around age 20, these growth plates ossify and turn into solid bone, which signals the end of longitudinal bone growth. After this point, bone remodeling and maintenance occur instead of growth.
Long bones have spongy bone at the ends, more properly known as cancellous or trabecular bone.
